Humor, nostalgia, and a sophisticated graphic sense animate Lowell’s drawings. He has a deep connection to the specific bits of culture that impressed him in his youth. He remembers not only the commercials, songs, and newscasts he heard on the radio but also the model of the radio he heard them on. Often based on found images, his drawings incorporate text, sometimes copied from the source, sometimes invented from his own recollections and fantasies. He draws with pen, confident in his idiosyncratic interpretation of the source material. Lowell loves talking to people and sharing his observations and memories.
